7-20-18 (Friday) HY: PU/PU Challenge + Pickle-Ball.
I again went to the gym early to set everything up and get my Challenge reps done and dusted. Just 5 sets of 7 reps of the different variations. Good little pump me up to start the session.
It was sort of an up/down day. In the first game, I jumped out to a 12-2 lead, but couldn't maintain it. John slowly but surely came almost all the way back, but I finally was able to close it out 15-13. The second game was a little different in that we were pretty close all the way to 11-8. A lot of lead changes and such. Then I just put it away with some crisp volleying and shot-making, 15-11. Those two games were the first games in three weeks that John made it to a double-digit score. The next two games brought him back down to a single-digit score, 8 and 3 respectively for the last two games. But in the middle of the last game, I felt the sweat-gates open and the sweat just started pouring down my legs and into my shoes. YUCH!!! Also, at the beginning of the third game, I felt like I hit a slight wall and my legs just started feeling really weak and tired. I had to really push to keep myself going. I felt better in the final game, but still not at 100%. But the most important streak for me now is the Consecutive Win Streak. I'd have to check to make sure, but I don't think I have lost a game to John in almost two months. It was a good day.
In the end, I burned a good 1226 kcals.
